Born of Carl Oskar Cristoffer Montgomery (5 April 1856 - 28 November 1920) and Sigrid Sofia Maria Sandell (30 December 1874 - 05 January 1932), de Montgomery was educated at Oxford University where he obtained a doctorate in Philosophy and also studied at the University of Stockholm.
He wrote on imperialism, labour relations and social history. He was known for his commentary regarding the Pax Britannica in 1936 when he argued for increased trade and friendly relations between Britain and the United States of America. He suggested the two nations had a "common interest in preserving the international peace", and was a lead proponent of the Special Relationship, saying "the two Anglo-Saxon nations are of a fundamentally peaceful disposition and prefer to live in peace". He held the view that the British Empire was "the principal factor in the development of humanity.
lieutenant means that the British Empire is primarily responsible for the maintenance of peace in the world".
In 1926 he invented and patented a unique razor sharpening device, characterised by the automatic rocking of the blade on the strap. He wrote books on such topics as Economics and Political history.
He also researched the genealogy of the Montgomery family, including the origins of their nobility, and based on this work he claimed the title of Comte de Montgomery.
